In addition to being Mitzvot, they bind the Jewish people together in time and space, and make us holy.

Answer:

Shabbat and kasrut are both important pillars in our fulfillment of our covenant with God. By observing the Shabbat we testify that God created the world (Exodus 20:7-10) and took us out of Egyptian slavery (Deuteronomy 5:11-14); and kashrut enables us to be a holy people (Leviticus 11:44).
